Tribe: Difference between revisions

: ''Not to be confused with '''[[Rivals]]''', the fifteen enemy tribes you raid with your dino pack. This page is your '''own''' camp of survivor workers.''

'''Gather rate''' multiplies the base rate; '''Watch security''' is what that worker adds on the [[#The night watch|night watch]]. A worker's base gather rate is '''0.7 per minute''' — comparable to an early [[Companions#Hired hands (background gathering)|hired-hand]] dino — before its tier multiplier and the current Age's multiplier.

'''Camp basics:''' a wanderer arrives about every '''4 minutes''' at base, speeding up toward a '''1-minute''' floor as the Campfire and your Age improve arrival. A new camp houses '''2 workers''' and holds '''120''' of each item in its stockpile; the Living Quarters and Central Depot raise those. '''Workers are transient''' — founding a new Age retires them (see below).

'''Arm your people:''' workers wear '''weapon, chest, and legs''' gear — plain pieces from your Bank or forged [[Blueprints|masterworks]] from the gear locker. Kit speeds their work, hardens the watch, and sets their strike-team power at the outposts. A '''wounded''' worker wears a {{Icon|glyph-bandage}} chip and sits out all jobs until it heals.

! Building !! Max level !! Effect per level

| {{Icon|camp-bldg-ledger}} Foreman's Ledger || 7+ || Auto-banks the camp stockpile on a timer; cap rises with [[#Material Ages|Material Ages]] (see below)

The '''Foreman's Ledger''' (added v0.36.9) periodically empties the camp stockpile straight into your [[Bank]] on its own, so a long offline stretch no longer sits idle at the stockpile cap. Its timer starts at '''every 8 hours''' at level 1 and speeds up an hour per level to '''1 hour''' at level 8; past that it keeps shrinking '''5 minutes per level''' down to a '''30-minute floor''' (level 14+). The base level cap is 7, and it rises further as you advance [[#Material Ages|Material Ages]].

'''Camp prestige''' is the sum of your camp's development, and it's what draws the better wanderers.

The base lines still grow about ×1.5 a level (Hide ×1.4). Living Quarters, Campfire and Central Depot max at level 12; Smelting Furnaces and Watchfire at 10, and the Foreman's Ledger at 7 (its Age-granted levels past 8 follow the same growth) — hence the dashes.

Every '''8 hours''' predators eye your stockpile. Put workers on watch as '''Sentinels''' and raise the '''Watchfire''' to build a '''Security Rating''' — the sum of each Sentinel's watch-security (per the wanderer table) plus '''+2 per Watchfire level''', further scaled by your Age's security multiplier. The raid chance starts at '''60%''' and drops '''4% per point of Security''', so 15 Security shuts raiders out entirely. A raid that lands '''steals 25%''' of your stockpile, and a breached palisade '''stalls the conversion lines for 2 hours''' while your artisans repair it. The night's honest odds are shown before it falls.

Your camp can advance through six eras, each granting '''permanent, tribe-wide multipliers''' to gathering, processing (conversion speed), security, and how fast wanderers arrive. Founding a new Age costs '''Age Catalysts''' (dropped by outposts), a total of building levels across the camp, and a bill of goods. It '''retires your workers and camp buildings''' for that power — but your stockpile is banked first, all worker gear comes home, and your skills, dinos, and Homestead are untouched.

The five advancement Ages ask for '''2, 4, 6, 8 and 10''' Age Catalysts in turn — 30 in all to reach the Moonstone Age. A full sweep of the ten rogue-clan outposts yields 28, so the last few Catalysts come from re-capturing outposts as their banners expire.

Ten hostile camps dot the valley. Pick a '''strike team''' of workers (their combined tier + gear power is your strength) and march — since v0.36.5 an outpost is a '''siege''': every one holds '''ten named defenders and a boss''' (the chief of the yard, fought last), and you duel the roster '''one bout at a time''' on a battle screen like the [[Rivals|rival raids]]. The win chance shown is the exact roll the engine makes, bout by bout.

Your team shares a '''blood pool''' built from its bodies, experience, and gear. A '''lost bout costs blood, not progress''' — the same defender keeps standing until you put them down — and if the pool empties, the whole team '''routs''' into the usual strike wounds (one hour's rest; nobody ever dies). You can '''retreat''' between bouts with no harm, and going offline mid-siege quietly withdraws the team.

'''Capturing an outpost''' plants your banner on the [[Map|Valley Map]] for '''2 hours''' and pays its loot, its '''Age Catalysts''', and — at the '''six deepest outposts''' — a '''masterwork [[Blueprints|blueprint]] sheet''' for the forge. When the banner expires the outpost reverts to its clan and can be taken again, which is how you farm the last few Catalysts after a full sweep (all ten yield 28; the Ages need 30).
